I went to a Nova Scola, and Baronial Birthday in Bergental (Western Mass) and had a wonderful time. I picked up some tips for blackwork, cardweaving, naalbinding and fingerloop braiding.

There was a class on how to meet people and get involved in the SCA and it was wonderful, there was a wide range of folks, with different levels of experience and all were marvelously helpful and enthusiastic. A former Baron hosted the class (I forget his name, unfortunately) and it was what I've been looking for, as far as getting to know the SCA goes.

I also got a nice little ego boost as he pointed out my embroidery and complimented me on it. It's nice to know that I'm doing it right.

Since then I've been working on favors for the upcoming East Kingdom Queen, and I need to find out if all of the favors from Stonemarche are being sent down as a group, or if we should be sending them individually. I have one done already, and I'm working on the second. I'm hoping to have around a dozen done.
